Week 6 "What a week"

I am going to start by saying “what a week” traveling from one place to another, studying for your promoting, finishing your thesis can be very exhausting be but is definitely worth it.
Let´s talk about Power Point Presentations.
Creating presentations in power point is an interactive way of teaching and also of motivating the students. The first benefit is because this program is very easy to use… because it is an application of Microsoft office and almost everybody has access to it. Another benefit is that we can introduce whatever we need in order to create an interesting presentation. In other words in each slide we can include texts, charts, pictures, graphs, animations, sounds. This PPP make it more visual for the students to understand the lesson and for the teachers this kind of presentation saves time in class that could be use for the students to produce the language…
Power Point Presentations also demand time from teachers, because we have to find, analyze and select the materials we are using in advance… this is also an advantage because we are actually planning the lesson.

For students this is another way of studying .. during class they will not be worry about copying the class, because they already have the information… during class they will be worry about understanding it…

  1. Dear Evely,

    Using Power Point is really "powerful", isn't it? And there are other ways to make also powerful presentations.

    Do you know prezi?
